    This issue brought to you by Virginia Governor: Old Dominion, New Election By Jacob Rubashkin JUNE 18, 2021 VOLUME 5, NO. 12 It has been a quiet year for elections so far, with a handful of special congressional races producing status quo outcomes that barely registered in the political consciousness. 2022 Governor Ratings But that quiet could be coming to a close as Virginia gears up for November, when it will host the most expensive gubernatorial contest Battleground in the state’s history. Last Tuesday’s Democratic primary finalized Democratic-held (6) Republican-held (5) November’s matchup. On one side, a ferocious fundraiser and Kelly (D-Kan.) AZ Open (Ducey, R) Democratic impresario. On the other, a political newcomer who could Mills (D-Maine) DeSantis (R-Fl.) be Republicans’ best chance at staunching the party’s decade-long Whitmer (D-Mich.)
